Not just another podcast about ’80s Christmas music. We go dark for the holidays with our depressing songs of the season playlist. Oh, Brad tries to save the day with happier songs, but his choices are suspect at best.

Featuring songs by The Waitresses, Erasure and more.

This episode is sponsored by Draft Kings. Listen to the show for a special offer for Stuck in the ’80s fans.

How did we go this long in Stuck in the ’80s history without honoring “The Untouchables?” Maybe we were just waiting for the right moment – like the flick turning 30 years old.

Still, Spearsy and Brad in LA do their best to show why “The Untouchables” is still untouchable. The story. The city. The style. Here endeth the lesson.

Stuck in the ’80s is sponsored by The 80s Cruise. There are still cabins left on the 2018 voyage, featuring performances by Rick Springfield, Loverboy, Billy Ocean, Lou Gramm, Berlin, Mike + The Mechanics, Katrina of Katrina and the Waves, Thomas Dolby and The Tubes.

Back in 2006, Stuck in the ’80s was just a year old, but we felt fancy enough to honor Michael Jackson’s “Thriller” album. The show, just 30 minutes long, was one of the first episodes we really felt good about when we were done. And not just for all the suggestive humor.

Now, on Thriller’s 35th anniversary, we go back in time to honor the album, the artist and the episode we recorded 11 years ago. Listen for some familiar voices and names and just smile.

Gayle in DC joins Steve and Brad to ask a ton of questions about the show: how did it start, how does it get made, and how much longer do we think we’ll keep at it? We gaze deep into our ’80s navel on this one!

And if that wasn’t enough sharing, stick around for seggies, with a PPTMN sent in by pirate royalty.

Here’s our final (maybe) report from 80s in the Sand in Punta Cana. We’re live at the Breathless Resort in the Dominican Republic for reviews of concerts by Howard Jones, Loverboy, Tom Bailey and Berlin. Plus, our much-requested review of Presidente beer.
